Doubtful..
Besides the off ice golden goose that the Oilers have convinced Snet to market him as, the impact players on the ice they could and would need (for PR) replace him likely have NMCs and can veto any trade.

The wasteland that Edmoton is as a destination for players thanks to Lowe and his meddling will return if there is no carrot of McDavid as incentive.

Why would top players want to go to Edmonton as part of a trade? They didnt go before McDavid and would be reluctant to again with him gone and all the other off ice crap players know you have to deal with up there
